Loop Representation of Quantum Gravity
A hyperlink is a finite set of non-intersecting simple closed curves in $\mathbb{R}^4 \equiv \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^3$, each curve is either a matter or geometric loop. We consider an equivalence class of such hyperlinks, up to time-like isotopy, preserving time-ordering.

Loop-Quantum-Gravity Vertex Amplitude [PDF]
Spinfoam theories are hoped to provide the dynamics of non-perturbative loop quantum gravity. But a number of their features remain elusive. The best studied one -the euclidean Barrett-Crane model- does not have the boundary state space needed for this, and there are recent indications that, consequently, it may fail to yield the correct low-energy $n$-

Relativistic Planck-scale polymer
Polymer quantum mechanics has been studied as a simplified picture that reflects some of the key properties of Loop Quantum Gravity; however, while the fate of relativistic symmetries in Loop Quantum Gravity is still not established, it is usually ...

Particle Scattering in Loop Quantum Gravity [PDF]
We devise a technique for defining and computing n-point functions in the context of a background-independent gravitational quantum field theory. We construct a tentative implementation of this technique in a perturbatively-finite loop/spinfoam model.

Loop Quantum Gravity and Observations [PDF]
Quantum gravity has long been thought to be completely decoupled from experiments or observations. Although it is true that smoking guns are still missing, there are now serious hopes that quantum gravity phenomena might be tested. We review here some possible ways to observe loop quantum gravity effects either in the framework of cosmology or in ...

Black-Hole Models in Loop Quantum Gravity
Dynamical black-hole scenarios have been developed in loop quantum gravity in various ways, combining results from mini and midisuperspace models. In the past, the underlying geometry of space-time has often been expressed in terms of line elements with ...
